Is there a way to Interrupt startup programs at startup rather than removing them from the folder previously?

Start in safe mode. That’s about it as far as I know.

For Windows.
Go to start. Click on run.

Type in MSCONFIG. Click on start up tab. Un-check what you do not want to have start up.

Re boot.

@ChazMaz But if this program is at startup, the program will immediatly make the computer not work until powered off and on again and the same will happen. So you won’t be able to click on start and run msconfig on time to stop it.

Ok I got ya… :-)

@limeaide seems to have the right answer. Then go to MSCONFIG.

Ok cool, so safe mode only runs the basic system and doesn’t run the startup folder?

Give it a shot. Cant hurt.

@LeotCol yes, only runs what needs to run for windows to start. Then you can delete straight out of startup. I don’t know if I’d mess with msconfig for this.

Check lifehacker.com. They have 5 recommended startup program managers including one that allows you to delay the starts so that they all don’t strain the CPU at once.
